The Wall

This wall isn’t made

from brick or mortar

It’s sealed with 3 am loneliness

it’s bricks are

the wanting to be needed

and it’s foundation

the need to be wanted

This wall keeps

the citizens of emotion trapped behind

like fiefs to a castle

and keeps all

who ride their horses of love

to it’s big ugly gate

at bay
